68 gs all original on the outside except the vinal top blew off on the highway.lowered slightly using different springs.
this fuel door is off a 69.68 has no r logo.I got this one at the local Pick Your Part wrecking yard.I dig the r logo.
700 r4 trans.Crossmember and mount mod.weld a few brackets,relocate the mount back a little bit ,some cut weld and drill on the crossmember,and that part of the job is done.If you include the couple of trial and error attempts,and brain storming,now your having fun.
